Yesterday I had to have the lower strut ball joint thingy replaced by the dealer and while they were doing that they informed me that my bearings needed replaced. When he tried to put the new bearings in the front wheel hub they just fell into place he didn't need to press them in like they should be. I ended up needing to get a whole new wheel hub because of it being worn out. I don't know about anyone else but I have only been riding this quad for a year and a half, since when do front wheel hubs wear out that quickly? I like to think that I take good care of my quad but the things that are wearing out on this thing are ridiculous, rear wheel hubs, axle, carrier bearings, brake pads every 4 rides, tie rod ends, you name it and I have had to replace it. Just frustrated again.

I can't wait for my new Suzuki Z400 to come in and I can semi-retire the Scrammie.

i have been riding mine for two years now and i have never had to replace any bearings or tie rods and i replaced my rear brakes one time. i take good care of my quad but i also ride the hell out of it. i cant complain about mine at all! with some maintence they will last a long time.
